New animated series 'Dealies' Netflix

If you were gutted by the cancellation of Scavengers Reign, Netflix has something that might ease the pain. The streaming giant has officially announced Dealies, a new adult animated workplace comedy set inside the most gloriously unhinged big box store in America.

The show is created by Joe Bennett and Ted Travelstead, and is expected to arrive on Netflix in 2027.

What Dealies is actually about?

The official description sets the tone perfectly for this animated series: “A savant salesman. A gentle gladiator. A quiet virtuoso. A summoner of the divine. And the poor soul who hired them. All part of the staff at Dealies, a big box store. They are masters of the delicate alchemy of trade. Prophets of enterprise. And occasionally they do some actual work.”

It is a 2D animated series centered on the everyday chaos of what the show calls a supernatural superstore, which already tells you this is not going to be a straightforward workplace sitcom. No release date has been set beyond the 2027 window.

The creative team behind Dealies has a serious track record

Joe Bennett co-created Scavengers Reign, the visually stunning sci-fi series that originally aired on HBO Max before moving to Netflix, where it was unfortunately not renewed despite strong critical praise.

He followed that with another underrated TV series, Common Side Effects on Adult Swim. It’s a darkly funny conspiracy comedy about two former lab partners on the run from both the DEA and Big Pharma. The show has already been renewed for a second season.

Ted Travelstead previously served as executive story editor on The Great North and has written for several Illumination projects. Green Street Pictures, the studio co-founded by Bennett, produces Dealies and has been behind all of his major projects.

With Scavengers Reign‘s legacy behind them and Common Side Effects still going strong, Dealies arrives with serious momentum and very high expectations.

Comcast’s breakup is the bluntest warning yet that the cable bundle is losing its grip
Peacock and Xfinity customers should see stability now as NBCUniversal's split rewires the logic behind future streaming perks.

Comcast's breakup sounds like an alarm bell for Peacock, Xfinity, and the monthly internet bill. At the service level, the answer is calmer. Current customers shouldn't expect subscriptions, billing, or broadband plans to change while the company works through the split.

NBC News reports that Comcast plans to spin NBCUniversal and Sky into a separate public company, moving Peacock, Universal, NBC, Telemundo, Bravo, theme parks, and Sky away from the broadband and wireless business. The separation is expected to take about a year.

If you have ever scrambled for the remote because a commercial is suddenly blasting twice as loud as the show you were watching, relief is on the way.

Starting July 1, California is making it illegal for streaming platforms to run ads louder than the content they interrupt. Governor Gavin Newsom signed the bill, known as SB 576, back in October 2025, and it finally takes effect this week.

Apple TV makes excellent shows that somehow never break into the mainstream conversation the way Severance or Ted Lasso did. These three picks all share that frustrating pattern, stacked with critical praise, loved by the people who found them, and still criminally underwatched.

Between them, you get a mystery comedy, a sweeping historical drama, and a sharp workplace sitcom, which is proof that Apple's range goes way beyond its biggest hits. If you're looking for something genuinely great that flew under your radar, start here.
